D is the correct answer because you would subtracts what he descended from where he started in order to find out how many feet he descended in all.

A would be the correct answer because he is up in elevation so that makes the 1200 positive and he goes down 20.4 which is negative and is goes that far down!!

hope this helps

Write an equation of the line. Express the answer using either the general form or the​ slope-intercept form of the equation of
Georgia [21]

Answer:

y = x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a line is y = mx+b

m is the slope

b is the y intercept

Get the slope

Using the coordinate points (4, 0) and (0, -4)

m = -4-0/0-4

m = -4/-4

m = 1

Since the line cuts the y axis at y = -4, the y-intercept b = -4

Get the equation;

Since y = mx+b

y = 1x + (-4)

y = x - 4

This gives the required equation

Ugo [173]

Answer: y=-4x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The equation of line is y=-4x-3

The line which is parallel to the given line is y=-4x+c

and shifted by 3 units down i.e. its y-intercept is 3 units below the given line

\therefore y=-4x-3-3\\\Rightarrow y=-4x-6

Determine the intersepts of the lines ​
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Y-intercept is (0, 100) and the X-intercept is (-250, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

For the y-intercept the line from the origin does not move left or right and stays at 0 but it goes up by 100.

For the x-intercept the line does not go up and down but it goes to the left -250.
